later composting if desired. The
shredding intensity depends on
the size of the leaf material and its
residual moisture.
Uses other than those described
here may damage the machine
and put the operator at risk.
During work, ensure that the device
is not struck against hard objects,
which can cause damage. Do not
suck up any solid bodies such
as stones, branches or pieces of
branch, fir cones or similar, since
these can damage the device, in
particular the shredding mechanism.
Repairs of this type are not cov-
ered by the guarantee.
Blowing operating mode:
For safety reasons, make sure the
intake cover is properly closed.
•
You get optimal results when you use
the blower with a separation distance
to the ground of 5 -10 cm.
•
Begin work with the highest blowing
power, in order to rapidly pile up the
leaves lying around. Select a lower
blowing power to compact the previ-
ously piled up leaves.
•
Before blowing, loosen leaves ad-
hering to the ground with a broom or
rake.
•
The guide rollers at the end of the tube
make it easier to work on flat surfaces.
Suction operating mode:
In suction mode the device must
only be operated with the collec-
tion bag mounted.

• Always hold the device tight
with both hands during operati-
on: use the handle (4) and the
additional handle (6) for this.
• Make sure the volumes of leaf
material sucked in at one time
are not too large. This will avoid
clogging of the blower / suction
tube and blockage of the impel-
ler wheel.
To reduce wear on the collec-
tion bag, do not drag it along the
ground while working.
If the display on the on/off switch
(2) flashes red during operation
and an alarm is heard, turn off
the device immediately. Remove
the battery.Check that there is
no material jammed between the
impeller and the suction aperture
(11). Carry out the procedures as
described in the section „Cleaning
and Maintenance". If the device
does not start after this, please
contact our service centre.
Emptying the collection bag:
With full collection bag, the suction pump-
ing capacity decreases considerably and
the collection bag must be emptied when
the bag is full or interferes with the suction
capacity of the device.
1. Turn off the device and wait until
the impeller has stopped.
2. Remove the battery (5)
3. Remove the hook (16) from the
eyelet (17). Release the locking
device (
13) and remove the
catcher (9).
